Before buying: measure the real slab/deck, verify permit and wind/snow requirements locally, and confirm current model specifications with the manufacturer. PergolaSpec has not physically tested every product listed.
Bottom line: no model wins on a marketing wind number alone. A usable shortlist must connect the exact size and roof configuration to its foundation detail, local design criteria, installed scope and written warranty. Hansø currently exposes the strongest public numeric wind/snow signal in this five-model snapshot, but the buyer still needs exact-configuration engineering and anchoring documents.

Exact-model evidence matrix
| Model | Kit price snapshot | Published wind / snow signal | Foundation / anchor gate | Written warranty signal | Open evidence gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hansø 4th Gen PRO+Manual louvered family; 10×10 through 13×19 options shown | About $3,978 for the selected configuration shown when checked; size and options change price | Wind: Manufacturer states up to 120 mph; request the report for the exact size and mounting condition Snow: Manufacturer states up to 25 psf roof/snow load | Reinforced baseplates; exact footing/anchor detail must come from the current install package | 10-year limited; page says registration within 30 days and separate terms apply to finish/components | Public product page makes the claims, but the buyer should request model-size engineering and anchor documents |
| Mirador 111DA 10×13111DA 10×13 aluminum pergola | $2,999; the checked white configuration was marked sold out | Wind: Manufacturer lists 82 mph for this exact page Snow: Manufacturer lists 17.7 lb/ft² for this exact page | Included anchor bolts are described for a flat concrete surface | 4+1 years shown on the product page; read the linked limited-warranty terms | Confirm what the wind figure assumes and whether the supplied anchor detail matches the slab and local code |
| Purple Leaf Athena ZY01-ATNCP-1013Champagne 10×13, SKU ZY01-ATNCP-1013 | $2,599 sale price shown; the page also listed larger sizes up to 12×24 | Wind: Manufacturer states up to 72 mph when secured with expansion screws on a hardened surface Snow: No numeric snow load found on the inspected exact-product page; it says to open louvers in heavy snow | Pre-drilled posts; wind statement is conditional on expansion screws and a hardened surface | No duration stated in the inspected product copy; obtain written terms before ordering | No exact-page numeric snow rating or written warranty duration in the inspected copy |
| Yardistry Meridian YM1183210×12 wooden louvered pergola, SKU YM11832 | $2,799.99 sale price shown; professional assembly was shown separately | Wind: No numeric wind rating found on the inspected exact-product page Snow: No numeric snow rating found on the inspected exact-product page | Post brackets included; anchoring hardware is not because mounting surfaces vary | 1 year materials/workmanship; lumber 5 years against rot and decay, original registered owner | Wind/snow values are not public on the exact page; anchoring hardware must be selected for the actual surface |
| StruXure Pergola XCustom dealer-designed Pergola X; project configuration varies | Quote only; manufacturer says footprint, technology and installation scope determine price | Wind: Manufacturer describes ICC-certified, site-engineered systems; require the project-specific design criteria Snow: No single blanket value for every project; manufacturer says the system is engineered for local structural loads | Dealer/project-specific design; require the stamped or permit package for the actual site | Manufacturer currently describes a transferable limited lifetime warranty; review the signed project terms | A family-level certification statement is not a substitute for the approved project configuration |
Installed cost is a scope ledger, not a kit-price multiplier
| Cost line | What changes it | Evidence required before deposit |
|---|---|---|
| Kit and roof system | Exact outside dimensions, manual vs motorized zones, finish and accessories | Dated SKU/configuration quote and included-hardware list |
| Freight and access | Crate length, lift gate, curbside handoff, storage, carry or crane | Written delivery responsibility and damage-inspection window |
| Footing / slab / deck | Post reactions, soil, frost depth, slab thickness, edge distance and deck load path | Exact baseplate/anchor detail plus site-specific review |
| Assembly | Crew, equipment, leveling, attachment/flashing, louver commissioning and debris | Included/excluded labor scope and installer responsibility |
| Electrical / controls | Motor zones, circuit, trench/conduit, transformer, sensors, lights and inspection | Current wiring requirements and licensed scope where required |
| Permit / engineering | Jurisdiction, attachment, exposure, local wind/snow criteria and HOA | Named document set the authority will review |
| Contingency | Unknown slab/soil condition, access change, revisions and exclusions | Visible reserve kept separate from vendor price |
Choose a model only after these three joins succeed
- Model → site: the exact footprint, post layout and roof operation fit the measured property.
- Claim → document: every wind/snow statement points to the exact configuration and installation condition.
- Checkout → installed scope: kit, delivery, foundation, assembly, electrical, permit and contingency are priced on the same written brief.
